    Post [HELP] Problem with "bevel" effects

    When I have more than one sheet with a bevel effects, one or more of the concave entities develops "pimples" (see below). Any idea why this happens, and how to stop it?

    No idea, but may I be the first to say that that is going to look AWESOME!

    Thank you. That seems to have worked. The problem was I trying to make a depression in a bitmap filled area using a overlaying reverse-bevel entity with the same fill. Oh well. (Oddly, this doesn't seem to affect the ball return, which has a concave trough on a wider convex entity.) I'll "CC" this to my parallel Cartographer's Guild thread.
